First presented at WebVisions09. A look at the intimate relationship between blogging and designing and between blogs and design. Today, you have everyone from architects, to chefs, to politicians, to pop starlets filling blogs with the areas of their expertise but, to varying degrees, most of them are removed from the process of designing or developing a blog of their own — graphic and web designers, on the other hand, have a more symbiotic relationship with this medium that they employ to talk about design. This session will explore what it means to design a blog and what it entails to blog about design, what works and what doesn’t and why, even with the thousands of design blogs out there, it still matters that we keep doing it.
